Cambozola is a branded soft blue cheese from Germany, made with cow's milk. A wheel has a white bloomy rind and a pale paste marked with blue veins. Extra cream in the make keeps the center rich, and a ripe wheel is almost spoonable. The taste is milder than a firm traditional blue, with mushroom notes from the rind and a gentle blue tang inside. The name joins the idea of Camembert with the idea of Gorgonzola, and the cheese sits between those two styles.

Lymeswold was a soft blue cheese from the United Kingdom, made from cow's milk. It had a white edible rind, like a Brie, and a creamy interior with blue veins. The taste was mild rather than sharp, so it was aimed at people who found traditional blue cheeses too strong. The name sounds like an old place, but it was chosen for the market and does not mark a cheesemaking village. Shops do not sell it now, because production stopped and it never returned as a regular cheese.
